“Chapels in Essex” – by Rosalind Kaye

Published in Issue 1

This book is subtitled Chapels and Meeting Houses in the County of Essex, including Outer London.

The book contains four directories of such buildings, those still standing and those demolished but not replaced, for both present-day Essex and the London boroughs which used to be part of Essex.

It is well illustrated with eight pages in colour. The commentary, although light, is informative and up-to-date.

The Congregational Chapel that existed in Stanford Rivers, and was demolished in 1927, is listed.

Profits from the sale of the book will go to the Historic Chapels Trust.
